Works!

[remus]

Works like a charm, thanks very much

[Jean-Franco]

in scene3 we have this at the end for the smallest surface.

You can add a hori line at the end of curve to avoid it.

Not a big deal than you can erase it but... perfection is needed

I do not understand exactly the difference between the two first scenes.
See below the top view when I selelect parallel projection.

[pilou]

Yes but it is some tedious
Beauty is go to the end

The curious thing is all seems good till the previous module

In the second scene,there is a construction point at start of the curve.

[Jean-Franco]

Now I got it !
But was not easy to understand or to see your construction point because of the line style you used.
Thank you.

Wow, thank you wikii...
So many responses in so little time... This just shows how much we needed this.

[MALAISE]

Thank you wikii sooo fast : incredible

Actually, it would be really cool to also have a script that orients the profile just like that final face... It could be called "FollowMe Slide", as it would not keep the profile vertical, but instead place it perpendicular to the curve, like in Playground slides, or toboggans.

Wiki Thank you Thank you
WOW this is the real missing link in SU fixed at last.
This worked perfect right out of the box.

For Architects developing roadways on non level topography this is a must have tool and for the handrail up sweeping stairs this will be a life saver.
I have begged, offered bribes, and even bathed every day to hopefully have someone put this together with no luck until the Wizard of Code delivered.
An icon would be a helpful addition if not too troubling to add.

Just brilliant and generous.

Thanks more than I can properly express.

Works but curious method

0.02 provide perfect ending and autosmooth.

This should have been a tool in SU from the very beginning, thank you wikii!

So we must make that (a vertical is more easy to draw in the space)
(bending effect on the right on the smooth view is just perspective !)
Works but curious method

Another thing : measure of lengh of the "rectangle facet" must be less than the radius of the curve else auto intersections become!

0.02 is the version, I had believed that was a parameter

But sorry seems you have uploaded a false version! I have always the same result and not your result !

I have uploaded a wrong package.
Sorry for that,please download v0.02 again.

an option for the sweep to start at the beginning of the line no matter where the profile is drawn would make this perfect. maybe a checkbox for start at path or start at profile. then maybe a normal(size of path) or distance from(size*distance from path) instead of the construction point. it seems a pain to make a construction point?

hey , i just noticed the

follow me rotate
script is written by wikii too! any chance the two will be combined
